I also hope Pelosi and Reid understand by throwing us a few lefties that are leaving office will not distract us from making sure they all leave and that includes them.

I pray that both Reid and Pelosi will serve jail sentences as well as Frank and Dodd.

THANK YOU !!!!!!!! I have seen Peter Schiff before, just didn’t put the name with the “face”.

There is a 10 minute video at the link below:

http://schiffforsenate.com/?q=media/peter-schiff-was-right-2006-2007-2nd-edition

It is at the link: http://schiffforsenate.com/

The first link has the video. IMHO, watching it might be just about the best 10 minutes I’ve spent of this short year so far. It was AMAZING!!

As I watched it, I was envisioning Dodd and Schiff at their first debate.

I know why Dodd is quitting now. It’s better than having to comtemplate a totally ruined life and possible lenghthy prison sentence after just one Schiff-Dodd debate, or will my lifeless scumbag democrat body be the first of many shown on cable and You Tube after this shotgun I have in my mouth discharges.

If ANY Freepers have the time, please watch the first link video. and imagine Rahm and dear reader watching the first debate between these two.

It looks like Hillary is up to something. Riady, her Indonesian sugardaddy according to Hannity has been back to the US this year twice. Bush had him banned.

If any of you plan or yearn for Hillary. Don’t. She comes from the same stock and from the same leaders as Obama. I wouldn’t let her near the office. She will try because she believes she is entitled. As time goes by; we are learning what Obama is carrying out were planted in the Clinton WH.

I pray that the Clintons will also be jailed.

"Dorgan quitting and now maybe Dodd. The RATs are leaving the sinking ship. We should easily get Dorgan’s seat but now Dodd’s may be a bit harder to switch."

Here's another one whose seat may soon be vacant:

Not a chance. That would imply that he posesses an ounce of decency or integrity somewhere in his pathetic soul.

Fox News confirming the news about Dodd a few minutes ago.

Could Dodd be thinking of a run for CT governor with Jodi Rell stepping down?

Will the 'RATs will run millionaire anti-war moonbat Ned Lamont to fill Dodd's Senate seat? Or Blumenthal or Chris Murphy as the Washington ComPost suggests? Susan Bysiewicz?

This is worrisome... I think any CT Republican could've beaten Dodd, at least as things stand now.

I don’t agree. This Rat reaction is a weakness move no matter how the thieves and their big media try to spin it, and they have to do it all in public which the rats despise. The momentum is w/ American people as these rats are forced to bow out one after another; it’s psychological warfare and we’ll make them squirm. They have become so toxic and the anger so pervasive and becoming more and more entrenched that NOTHING will save this thieves in Nov. Americans want checks and balances back; the house is burning and left and right patriots will come together this time just as they did after 9/11. This is not about party politics any longer.

Just as petulant children Rats never can stop themselves; they always end up w/ goo on their own faces.

** Forgive my rant, I am just exploding w/ anger by the behavior of these thugs.

Stalinist nutburger Lamont ought to be preferable to run against after Dodd. Blumenthal is a weasel, the Eliot Spitzer of CT.

Excellent comparison of Blumenthal to Spitzer. This is worrisome news about Dodd "retiring"... he was beatable. Now who knows what will happen...

Blumenthal is seen as a popular politician in CT.

He, and his immediate family ought to be forced to work for free in perpetuity until their debt is paid. (slavery)

It's what he did to US!
